Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1436  Unsealed?

The man attacked Grey after forcing him back with the first attack.

Grey was taken aback with the strength the man was portraying. This wasn't the strength someone at the Peak of the Venerable Plane should possess.

Grey blocked the attack with more force this time and countered, but to his surprise, the man was covered in both lightning and wind and reacted quickly, dodging his attack.

The man already had the darkness element, and when he attacked, he used the fire element, now, he is using two more elements which indicated that he had four elements.

"You have four elements?" Grey was surprised.

"What, you're the only one allowed to have four elements?" The man asked.

Grey shook his head, "I'm just surprised you have four. And why are you so strong?"

"You'll find you when you're defeated."

The man attacked with his lightning element, striking Grey with a lightning arrow.

Grey was equally as fast as the man, if not even faster. There was no way the man's attack was going to hit him. He dodged and appeared close to the man, about to attack.

The man, seemingly prepared for this, attacked the second Grey's figure appeared.

Grey blocked the attack, but he felt his figure forced back by the impact of the attack.

Grey didn't stay back and attacked, but the man dodged the attack, before turning to run.

Grey went after him, but the man was very slippery, escaping from Grey's whenever he got close to him.

The man was a genius when it came to escaping from someone stronger than himself, not just that, but while running, he used the puppets in the Early stages of the Venerable Plane as a means of distraction, exploding them as he left them on the path while he ran away.

Grey found it very frustrating and made use of his water domain. A snowstorm started and the man was caught in the middle of it.

The man used his lightning domain, making the snowstorm light up with a beautiful color.

Grey wasn't interested in the man's lightning domain, he closed up to the man and made use of his earth domain. The sudden change in gravity threw the man off his feet, before he could regain his footing, Grey was already standing in front of him, attacking viciously.

The man blocked the attack, but he was sent flying by the aftereffect of the attack. This attack wasn't a regular one, but it was a fusion orb of three elements. Grey didn't want to kill the man, so he naturally wouldn't use an attack that might take the life of the man.

The man slammed into the ground heavily, before rushing out from the ground like a flash of lightning.

Grey, covered in red lightning, caught up to the man and attacked once again. This time, he used his space element to drag the man towards him and he struck him with a bolt of lightning.

The man was once again sent flying by Grey. He spat out a mouthful of blood, but didn't give up, he knew he would be able to keep up with Grey, all he needed was an opportunity to strike.

As the battle went on, he started to realize the opportunity he was waiting for might never come. Grey was a calculative fighter, not giving his opponent any opportunity to take advantage of. He was someone who used to fighting in this position and knew just what the man was waiting for, there was no way he would give the man such an opportunity.

The man was starting to lose up, and then Grey's inscriptions lit up the sky, giving Grey the chance to attack from three different angles. And just like the man Grey fought with in the start, this man couldn't keep up and slowly started to get injured by Grey.

His movements started to slow down and Grey was able to apprehend him. Grey didn't delay and rushed over, sealing the man's cultivation.

Grey heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "You know, this would've been over if you had just let me seal you from the start."

"You think I'll let myself be taken without a fight?" The man asked.

Grey shook his head, "What's the outcome of your fight? Getting beat up and still getting caught."

The man snorted coldly, "Do you think this is over?"

Grey's eyes suddenly widened when he sensed energy in the body of the man.

"What's happening?"

A great sense of crisis came to him and without hesitation, he vanished from the spot.

A large explosion rang out on the place Grey was standing on. Under the ground, multiple puppets could be seen planted in the ground.

The man turned them into mines waiting to explode. He baited Grey into coming close before detonating them.

In the sky.

Grey looked at the explosion in shock. What he couldn't understand was how the man was able to use his essence. He sealed the man's essence and he shouldn't be able to do anything, yet he was still able to achieve this.

"It should be impossible."

He closed his eyes and sensed the direction the man ran to. He marked the man when fighting with him in case an accident like this happened, who would've thought that he would need to track the man in the end?

Without wasting time, he went after the man.

The man had run deep into the woods, frightened at the thought of almost being captured by someone. He was still trying to do something when he heard a voice behind him.

"You think you can run away from me?"

"What are you?" The man almost fainted when he heard Grey's voice.

"How did you escape?" Grey asked.

"Why will I tell you my secret?"

"Even if you refuse to tell me, I'll know either way." Grey wasn't pressured, he walked closer to the man and attacked.

The man was only able to defend with his fire and darkness element, before being sent flying.

"Odd."
